The Journal
No upsell, no jargon. Plain answers to the questions people actually ask us — what things cost, what your car really needs, and how to keep good paint good. Written by the two of us who'll be detailing it.
Free guide · 60 secondsThree checks, no products — read your own paint in about a minute and tell whether it needs a wash, protection, or correction before you spend a cent.
Read the guide → Guide · PricingThe honest number, and what sets it. Why correction is priced in hours, the difference between one-step and multi-stage, and why a cheap "correction" usually isn't one.
Read the guide → Guide · Paint careThey solve opposite problems — one removes flaws, the other protects. Which your car needs first, why the order matters, and where we sit on it honestly.
Read the guide → Guide · MaintenanceThere's no single number, but there is a sensible rhythm — and salt air and harsh sun in Sydney's east make it matter more. A simple, honest schedule.
